Rolo Tomassi record with Diplo

By | Published on Friday 23 October 2009

Rolo Tomassi have announced that they are recording the follow-up to their brilliant debut album, ‘Hysterics’, in LA with producer Diplo. An artist in his own right, of course, Diplo has previously produced artists including MIA and Santogold, and was behind Major Lazer with Switch.

Speaking to Drowned In Sound, Rolo Tomassi synth player James Spence said: “I’m hoping that it’ll be a clear and definite progression from ‘Hysterics’. I’m very happy with the songs we’ve written for it and to have a producer who’s out of the realms of what we’re used to will hopefully bring a new, fresh element to our sound. We’ve never really worked with a ‘producer’ as such before, so all it’s new and exciting for us”.

The as-yet-untitled album is set for release via Hassle Records in March.
